Christmas is all about gathering, celebrating and sharing beautiful food. Yet it is often the sides, salads and sweet things that bring the whole feast to life. This is exactly what I will be teaching and cooking in this joyful, feel-good Christmas cooking class.
Join me as we create a fresh and modern Christmas sides and salads menu full of bright flavours, seasonal produce and clever make-ahead tips. These are the dishes that have your guests asking, “Can I please have the recipe?” while you smile knowing you pulled it together with calm and confidence.
I will be demonstrating a spectacular spread of show-stopping sides, vibrant salads, and two stunning desserts, perfect for a hot Australian Christmas and just as wonderful to enjoy throughout the summer season. You’ll also receive a simple timing plan so Christmas Day feels more relaxed for the host… just as it should be.
We finish by enjoying a beautiful festive meal together around the table. A delicious taste of the celebration ahead. Whether you’re hosting the big day or bringing a plate to share, this Christmas sides and salads cooking class will leave you inspired, organised and excited for the season.
